Questions from Waltham Chase
How far is Waltham Chase from London?
It’s about 62 miles from central London, and inside the area we cover.
Could you serve our guests after a service at Waltham Chase Methodist Church?
Yes, at a garden, field or venue nearby where the truck or trailer can park. Service would be at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Do you clear up afterwards?
Our area is packed away and left tidy. Let us know the venue’s rules on waste and we will confirm the arrangements with your quote.
What do you need at the venue?
A level, firm spot for the truck or trailer, with access wide and high enough to drive in, plus the venue’s permission. Power and water arrangements are confirmed with each booking.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends. Even if it’s short notice, it is worth asking.
Can guests build tacos at a wedding breakfast?
A taco bar makes a relaxed, sociable wedding meal. Service is timed around speeches and photos. Read our taco bar guide for ideas.
Does the taco bar need the truck on site?
The bar can stand on its own, away from the truck or trailer. We still need to park our vehicle nearby to unload, and the venue’s agreement.
How it compares

Catering for every guest

Dishes are labelled, with allergen information available at the table.

Planning the serving area
We will be honest if a space will not work. The main points are:
- Space for a serving table on level ground
- Power and water arrangements, confirmed with each booking
- A spot next to the truck or trailer when both are booked
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we will advise before booking.

- Pickled onions and toppings
- Tortilla chips
- Two to four fillings

DIY taco night versus a caterer
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
